He is survived by his loving wife, Linda, and many cousins and friends. He was a vice president at Southern Healthcare Solutions.

It is a treasure, Paul, our 56 year friendship starting with Victor Peter and St. Pat's. I miss your wisdom, great humor, your Paulisms that make me laugh out loud, your optimistic encouragement (thanks for "Trail Boss"), our repetitious exchanges of memories and old stories, and the next pages of your new novel. I pray that you are happy and peaceful with your Mom and Dad, Vic and Freddie and I'm sure the reunion was grand. We have lost you but heaven has you now. Love, Cathy
Linda, I send you my loving condolences.

Thank you for all the loving comments about Paul. He was a kind and wonderful man. I do want to add just a note to please disregard the suggestion of sending flowers, a tree, etc. I did not ask for that to be listed. If you want to send a memorial, would prefer a donation to your favorite charity.
Thank you, again.

I have known Paul for most of my life. He was my first boyfriend who took me to his Senior Prom when I was only a Sophomore. We have stayed in touch over these many years and he was always a fun, loving, supportive friend. Paul was a true gentleman who was kind, talented and devoted to his lovely wife, Linda and his many friends. He will always be loved and missed and have a special place in my heart.

At St. Pat's, Paul and Vic were friends. So many years have passed. Looking through Facebook, I was able to see how happy and rich Paul life was. His loving marriage. His commitment to Farmington. His work with Hospice. A fine man. God bless.

I have such fun memories of Paul as a child going to family holidays and other ocassions. And even more when we were grown..at his place in Schaumburg, wedding, Thanksgiving weekend trip to TN, and Florida times! Paul you were loving, fun loving, down to earth, intelligent and such a caring and compassionate man in all your relationships as my dear cousin & friend, a husband and father and son, etc. I know you're at peace with our Lord and God and your parents, other family and dear friends, Victor and others. It will be so hard for Linda, Rachel and others who will greatly miss you yet be comforted by wonderful memories and knowing you're at peace. Hope and pray to be with you again one day
